A strong dose of old world smokiness adds a whole new dimension to the Märzen experience. Our Smoked Märzen carries an intense smoke flavor that elevates this style to new heights of complexity and satisfaction. Take a few sips and be transported to the cobblestone streets and biergartens of Bamberg, Germany where Rauchbiers are a way of life.

On tap at the brewery, pouring a copper colour with a warm beige head and some light creamy lacing. Smoky wood nose over dark malts. The flavours starts off with fruity dark malts and smoke comes along, to be cut by the dryness of the hops. A nice smoky Marzen with enough hops to kill the smokiness lingering, so a little off from the style, but still good.

At the source: pours dark brown with off white head. Aroma is smoky malt with some roast. Taste is lightly bitter. Rather smoky. Light sweetness. Pretty solid.
